WedoLow VS Code Extension Now Available

The WedoLow VS Code Extension is now officially available for download, providing embedded C/C++ developers with an easy way to install, configure, and manage the WedoLow MCP Server directly from Visual Studio Code.

While the MCP Server itself has been in public beta, this new extension streamlines the setup and integration process, making it faster and more convenient to leverage WedoLow’s optimization engine, helping developers bridge the gap between AI code generation and hardware-level performance.

The MCP Server has already enabled developers to analyze and optimize AI-generated C/C++ code. And now, with this VS Code extension, that power comes directly into your development workspace.
